Ants engage in symbiotic relationships with a diversity of species. In this virtual presentation Dr. Moreau will share some of her research using a myriad of tools to study the important interactions ants have with plants and bacteria.

Dr. Corrie Moreau is a professor, and Curator of the Insect Collection in the Department of Entomology at Cornell University.

This year on February 6 – 12, the Paleontological Research Institution (PRI) and its Museum of the Earth will hold events for “Darwin Days,” the annual celebration of the life and ideas of Charles Darwin.
